Apparently Tom is the Internet’s Dave Barry. I don’t know what that makes Dave Barry, though.
PS: OK, so maybe they’re not Germans, but the truth ruins my subject line. Also, all of you dirty Europeans are the same, anyway.
Whoa, that’s cool! At least it looks cool. Although for all I can tell, it might be a hate page for my Deus Ex review.
-TomDid Dave Barry hate Deus Ex?
dig mange gange fremover!
Yeah…
.dk is Denmark. Germans actually hate Tom Chick. I think it’s the beret.
It always comes back to the beret, doesn’t it? And Deus Ex.
Look, man, I covered all of that in the PS just for you.
I only have time for S.
You know?
Translation Pop Quiz!
Hvorfor man ikke skal gå i biffen med Tom Chick.

c) Thus the noble sailors sailed away across the wine-dark sea with Tom Chick.

Too bad it’s a seemingly-defunct site.
I could probably translate it, but Sparky’s doing such a good job of it.
e) Why you shouldn’t walk in the beef with Tom Chick.
I have a feeling that “gå i biffen” might mean something else in Danish though…
f) Why you shouldn’t go and see a movie with Tom Chick
Probably referring to this column
Nørder kommer i mange afskygninger = Nerds come in many different shapes(?)
But what do I know, I’m not Danish…
Hate to ruin everyone’s fun with the facts, but according the the free online translator at http://www.tranexp.com:2000/InterTran, this translates as:
“And so decent no shall wear biffen by Bare Chick.”
So now that we all know what it means, let’s get on with our lives.
:)
Tom didn’t like Descent? What a rat fucking bastard. First Deus Ex, now this. Can we recall him or something? I’d much rather have Arnold Schwarzenegger writing game reviews.
No, no, I loved Descent – all of them – but I seem to have hated Decent. Or at least I didn’t give it a biffen to wear.
-TomAlso, it makes it sound vaguely like you were romping around naked. No offense, but ew.

What’s the matter, Ry, do you have a biffen complex?
I wonder if Tom eats at California Pizza Kitchen across the street afterwards.
Biffen means “car full of manure”.
